and improve equipment so no one can talk about concussions.

Yeah I played and I think new helmet technology might work. I've done the research.

NYC (but PGH will forever be home)
Gambling and FF are the only things holding this doomed league together :to:

So what youre saying is, $$$ is the glue which holding the NFL together??


Listen, every year someone says this just to be a contrarian, yet ratings consistently beat any and every other event/sport on TV.


I eventually see a small decline as the games changes and becomes pussified-> but this giant aint goin no where at least in our lifetime.


SO STOP CREATING THIS DAMN POST EVERY WEEK

Man, I saw a penalty they called on Jenkins in the Pats game that made me sick to my stomach. Pussification will be the reason I stop watching. I'll start watching rugby.

The real thing the NFL needs to do is start teaching fundamentals when it comes to tackling. There's a lot of missed tackles because folks are launching themselves and that's the same thing causing more concussions.

I don't know if we are talking about the same play but was a clean hit, 15 fukking yards. That shyt kept the drive going, these refs just have another judgement call to manipulate games if they "get too rough for safety"

What's the trend in TV ratings though? That's the driving factor in sports these days.

Sigh

20 years from now when China's 1 billion population has a true middle class and places like Nigeria have a solid basketball infrastructure this won't be a question.

Basketball has significant potential for growth. NFL has maxed out. Wait til the Mexicans take over America.

At one point, MLB viewership dwarfed the NFL.
